Sugoi!=Amazing!
Omedetou Akiyama san!= Congradualtions Akiyama!

I think if he could have kept Akiyama off the mat it would have ended differently.
FYI: Akiyama in Japanese means= Autumn Mountain

Damn props to the Japanese guy. At first I thought he was done for.

Great job of recovery, composing himself and focusing on taking the guy down. He knew couldn`t KO him, aiming for a tap, smart move.

This Akiyama is dude awesome. Great jujitsu, every time he got dropped to the floor, he somehow managed to use it to his advantage.

The Gi that Akiyama is wearing is basically a weapon. he won by an arm lock sumbission and the Gi prevented slippage due to sweat etc so in my opinion it`s a bit unfair.
Of course it can work the other way and the sweaty opponant might be able to get a better grip on him but on the whole the Gi gives Akiyama an unfair advantage.
Still he showed some skill in reversing the takedown.

The Gi, as with Hoyce Gracey back in the day should be classed as a weapon and not allowed, even if it is cultural.

Also, i have to say that i hate the way fights in Japan insist on using a boxing ring. They clearly arn`t suitable for this kind of fight, evidenced by the way they are allways falling out of it.
It`s very annoying to see the ref and lather hitting the players arms whenever they are against the ropes.
i hate the insane screaming they do too.
I also hate the fact that the fighters can be fined ten percent of their pay for instinctive behavoir such as spitting on the ground etc.
Rant over.

Akiyama is 4th generation ethnic Korean living in Japan who obtained Japanese nationality per Wikipedia.

Regardless of the poor conditions (a square ring?), that was a good fight. Obviously akiyama isn`t that much in a stand-up fight (he recovered well enough, but had no moments where he was controlling the fight), he did fantastically on the floor, even with manhoef lifting him entirely off the ground and slamming him.

Akiyama is fukkin gay
You guys must of seen the fight with sakuraba.
If you haven`t,Akiyama covered his body with some type of oil.Sakuraba was pissed cause he couldn`t get a good grip and ended up losing the fight.After careful investigation Akiyama was banned from the ring for a few month`s or something.

That`s the most... - well - I sent the link to this fight to one of my mates saying that it demonstrates how muay thai savages stuff like Karate and Thai Kwon Do. Because I was that certain that the black fighter was going to win.

The stand up striking was just brutal - maybe the black fighter expended more energy attempting the quick KO than he should have - so he couldn`t counter the slow grapple to hyperextension.

If I`d paid for a ticket to the fight - I know I`d be happier to see a win via a good technical submission, than by a mince meat KO. The technical side of martial arts are what make them so watchable compared to very effective but narrowly focused boxing we were raised on in the west.

^ Thai Kwon Do, umm you mean Tae Kwon Do. TKD is a Korean martial arts not Thai buddy.
